There’s this trend that tries to sell the idea that, if LLMs and agents have any shortcomings, instead of them getting better we should lower the standards. Focus on the “MTTR”. Is the code bad? Don’t read it. Don’t review it. Remove the bottleneck (the human in the loop). This narrative is all over the place.

This tech is quite useful, and I wish we focused on how to work with the tool better and improved our processes around it instead of treating the symptoms.

Aren't people working on both? I'm sure the AI labs are working on their end of it. People are building better agents. You can work on skills or tweaking your AGENTS.md.

There no end to what you can do, but the question is how much time you devote to that versus your actual project.
